Because using time spans is harderest.
Soupcon of a brain fart there.
It's c#, so addDays() does it all for you. But that needs thinkification.

To introduce subtle bugs around midnight, that require expensive fixing and guarantee a job for life?

I've done something similar to the second one of those, i.e.
DateTime now = DateTime.Now;
DateTime midnight = new DateTime(now.Year, now.Month, now.Day);
Am I missing an elegant way to do that?
|
|
|
|
|
DateTime endDate = DateTime.Today;
Today is Now with the time truncated.

Thanks, I'll try to remember that! Not that intuitive a name, to me.

One could also use DateTime.Now.Date; .

Erm, I was just logging on to report myself for this. It looks very similar
System::Drawing::Rectangle clientRectangle = System::Drawing::Rectangle(ClientRectangle.X, ClientRectangle.Y, ClientRectangle.Width, ClientRectangle.Height);
I have no defense, guilty as charged

It would be interesting to have a coding horrors forum that only allowed self-reported craziness.

The first step to recover is admitting you have a problem.

How would that work for people who suffer from hypochondria?

LOL It had been some time since I checked this forum and when I saw the title of this post I thought there would be tons of Rebbeca Black references (I'm writing this as of FRIDAY, September 7th)

Definitely WTF worthy.

So I think the guy before me wanted to spell the word 'Assigned' in his C# method name but ended up saying
public int UpdateReasonNotAssgiggedFlag(IEnumerable<DownTime> downtimes)
{
}
Excuse the profanity, but I wonder what it feels like to get "ass-gigged." Anyway, I corrected the "misspelling..."

Sounds like a reporting method for use in a prison web service.

Update....
}
(please accept my appologies too - Just couldn't resist).

So that's why they call it the "soapbox"...

Is that a valid identifier?

No. Its not an identifier in C#. # is used as a directive.

I didn't even see it the first time. If you hadn't metioned I might not have noticed.
However, now that I do, it is quite funny!

Its amazing how the human brain fills in what we think it should be when reading - I missed it the first time also.

I've never cursed in my executable code, but I have in comments a number of times.

In the cases I recall, my cursing was an accurate technical description of the situation I was addressing. The point of a comment is to describe what your code cannot. If my code has to do something that looks unnecessary or stupid because someone else is an idiot, you bet damn Skippy I'm going to document it. If my language in the comment is a little 'colorful', it's because the circumstances were so outrageous it was warranted.

A few years ago I was so upset because of a problem that my variable declaration was
string fick = "dich";
which is german for
string f*** = "you";
unfortunately I forgot to change that back before checking in... o_O
thank goodness my department chief had a lot of humor; there were no further consequencies...

Curse loud, not in source!

When I first started working with WPF and C# a few years back. I was trying to get some piece of code to work and I ended up writing something along the lines of just f*****g work already. I also ended up checking it into the repo. When my supervisor saw it, he laughed and said that he's done that a few times when he can't get something to work. Of course, by the time he saw the comments, I already had the code working.
